The holidays often overwhelm us, caregivers, especially if we are the primary caregiver. As a result, we often forget or forgo our own wants and needs.
In this episode of Eldercare Success, I give you several ways to tap into what YOU want and need -- physically and emotionally. And, no, it is not selfish at all. In fact, asking for what you want – from your parents, your family, medical, and other professionals, can help you find more strength to continue through the months and years ahead.
It is too easy to fall into the trap of not asking for help or letting others know what you want and need. First, you will need to stop hiding or falling into the role of a victim. Strong, capable caregivers do not do that! The tips in this episode can be applied easily. So, give yourself an extra special gift this holiday season, and into the New Year, by learning how to ask for what you want and need. It’s easier than you might think.
